This better not conflict with the Bi-Mon-Sci-Fi-Con.

Joe, I can only assume that you're making fun of Science Fiction, and on behalf of Gary Farber, I rebuke you mightily.

I think it would work ten times better with two more syllables. "Tri-coun[ty]-bi-mon-sci-fi-con", say. "Coun" pronounced "cun".

That would be the enormous, hand-stretched readership, right? Maybe it's strap-on feet he needs.

Is Nevada convenient?

How about this?

It can't be at The Mineshaft, because The Minshaft already serves a different purpose. It's the Unfogged counterpart to "Drinking Liberally"; rather than lefties getting to know each other better over drinks, lefties get to know each other better over hot man-on-man action.

In Minnesota, it might be the Giant Gaping Strip Mine with Bonus Asbestos, um, Hole.
